The antique pine flooring found on this site is the result of
a pains-taking process of bringing these mills down carefully.
The Lancaster project took two years to complete and involved
much more than the antique pine element. We had to clear all of
the structures on the site.
The antique pine was taken down with care, separated
into beam sizes, and staged for shipping, denailing, and resawing.
These structures were put together with skill,
with large structural beams holding the next story from underneath,
then the smaller flooring beams spanning these larger beams, then
two layers of subfloor on top of the flooring beams. The flooring
beams were laying flat with a spline put in the groove cut into
each side of the beam, joining it with the next beam. The flooring
we sell is primarily from these flooring beams..
KMAC has extensive experience with deconstructing
all types of structures, and apply all of this expertise to carefully
taking apart these beam structures. This deconstructing
technique results in reclaimed material that is in top shape for
milling into new forms, such as resized beams, flooring, or furniture.
